Congress Springs 2006 Viognier (Lodi)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $12
You’ll find sweet and sour flavors in this wine, like in a LifeSaver lemon candy. The best part is the acidity, which is tart, and keeps the wine balanced.  — S.H.  (2/1/2008)

Congress Springs 2006 Chardonnay

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $13
The structure on this wine is just fine, with crisp, coastal acidity and low alcohol making for a clean, well-balanced Chard. Its weakness is in the thinness of flavor. The wine is watery, with mere traces of citrus fruits and peaches.  — S.H.  (2/1/2008)

Congress Springs 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $12
Harsh and hot, with chili pepper, mint and thinned-down blackberry and cherry flavors.  — S.H.  (2/1/2008)

Congress Springs 2005 Petite Sirah (Lodi)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $12
Raspingly dry, thick in harsh tannins, and only mildly fruity, with a trace of cherries, leather and tobacco, this rustic wine needs greasy meats and cheeses to play against.  — S.H.  (2/1/2008)

Congress Springs 2006 Pinot Noir

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $13
Thin, dry and harsh, with cola flavors that are so thin, all you can really detect is the heat of alcohol. If you’re not fussy, it’s a basic introduction to Pinot Noir.  — S.H.  (2/1/2008)
